Question

Read the question carefully and give me all right solutios. 

A 2.4 m diameter tank is initially filled with water 5.5 m above the center of a 10 cm diameter, sharp-edged hole. The surface of the water tank is open to the atmosphere, and the hole drains to the atmosphere. If you neglect the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor, calculate:

a) the initial flow rate of the tank and

b) the time it takes to empty the tank.
c) Does the orifice loss coefficient cause a significant increase in tank drain time? yes or no,

the emptying time for this case is t =
